1. What is Bike Loan EMI?

EMI (Equated Monthly Installment) is the fixed payment amount made by a borrower to a lender at a specified date each calendar month. For bike loans, EMI payments are used to pay off both principal and interest each month.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard EMI formula:

Where:

• \( P \) — Loan principal amount
• \( r \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate divided by 12 and converted to decimal)
• \( n \) — Loan tenure in months

Explanation: The formula calculates the fixed monthly payment that would be required to pay off a loan over its term, including both principal and interest components.

3. Importance of EMI Calculation

Details: Calculating EMI helps borrowers understand their monthly financial commitment, compare different loan offers, and plan their budget accordingly before taking a bike loan.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the loan amount in dollars, annual interest rate in percentage, and loan tenure in months. All values must be positive numbers.
